This image has been selected to be included at the Women Street Photographers Annual Exhibition 2023 in New York City, USA.
About the photograph:
This photo was taken on a recent trip to Oaxaca, Mexico for the Day of the Dead celebrations. While Día de Muertos and Halloween are two totally different holidays, kids still enjoy the “perks” of Trick or Treating. These four, parked in the middle of a pedestrian street, were hoping for tourists to toss some pesos or candy their way. The three girls “meditating” cracked me up, but what made the scene was the “dead” clown with the butcher’s knife lying behind them. Kids being kids, innocent and devious all at once.
About the show:
A juried show, 74 photographers in total were selected by guest judges: Tracey Woods, Ailine Smithson & Laura Noble. The show is curated by Gulnara Samoilova, the founder of Women Street Photographers, and will be up from 14th April – 30th April 2023.
